Acquisitions | NOTE 3 - ACQUISITIONS Pointer Transactions On October 3, 2019 (the “Closing Date”), in connection with the completion of the Transactions and pursuant to the terms of the Investment Agreement, I.D. Systems reorganized into a new holding company structure by merging I.D. Systems Merger Sub with and into I.D. Systems (the “I.D. Systems Merger”), with I.D. Systems surviving as a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of PowerFleet. Also on October 3, 2019, pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, Pointer Merger Sub merged with and into Pointer (the “Pointer Merger”), with Pointer surviving as a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of PowerFleet Israel and an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of PowerFleet. As a result of the Transactions, I.D. Systems and PowerFleet Israel each became direct, wholly-owned subsidiaries of PowerFleet and Pointer became an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of PowerFleet. In addition, as a result of the Transactions, PowerFleet became a publicly traded corporation and former I.D. Systems stockholders and former Pointer shareholders received common stock of PowerFleet. I.D. Systems common stock ceased trading on the Nasdaq Global Market and Pointer ordinary shares ceased trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market and the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange (“TASE”), following the close of trading on October 2, 2019 and at the effectiveness of the Pointer Merger on October 3, 2019, respectively, and PowerFleet common stock commenced trading on the Nasdaq Global Market on October 3, 2019 and on the TASE on October 6, 2019, in each case under the symbol “PWFL”. At the effective time of the I.D. Systems Merger (the “I.D. Systems Merger Effective Time”), each share of I.D. Systems common stock outstanding immediately prior to such time (other than any I.D. Systems common stock owned by I.D. Systems immediately prior to the I.D. Systems Merger Effective Time) was converted automatically into the right to receive one share of PowerFleet common stock. At the effective time of the Pointer Merger (the “Pointer Merger Effective Time”), each Pointer ordinary share outstanding immediately prior to such time (other than Pointer ordinary shares owned, directly or indirectly, by I.D. Systems, PowerFleet or any of their subsidiaries or Pointer or any of its wholly-owned subsidiaries immediately prior to the Pointer Merger Effective Time) was cancelled in exchange for $8.50 in cash, without interest (the “Cash Consideration”), and 1.272 shares of PowerFleet common stock (the “Stock Consideration,” and together with the Cash Consideration, the “Pointer Merger Consideration”). I.D. Systems stock options and restricted stock awards that were outstanding immediately prior to the I.D. Systems Merger Effective Time were converted automatically into equivalent PowerFleet awards on the same terms and conditions applicable to such I.D. Systems stock options and restricted stock awards prior to the I.D. Systems Merger Effective Time. At the Pointer Merger Effective Time, each award of options to purchase Pointer ordinary shares that was outstanding and unvested immediately prior to such time was cancelled and substituted with options to purchase shares of PowerFleet common stock under the 2018 Plan on the same material terms and conditions as were applicable to the corresponding option immediately prior to the Pointer Merger Effective Time, except that (i) the number of shares of PowerFleet common stock underlying such substituted option is equal to the product of (A) the number of Pointer ordinary shares underlying such option immediately prior to the Pointer Merger Effective Time multiplied by (B) 2.544, with any fractional shares rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares of PowerFleet common stock, and (ii) the per-share exercise price is equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (A) the exercise price per Pointer ordinary share subject to such option immediately prior to the Pointer Merger Effective Time by (B) 2.544 (rounded up to the nearest whole cent). At the Pointer Merger Effective Time, each award of options to purchase Pointer ordinary shares that was outstanding and vested immediately prior to such time was cancelled in exchange for the right to receive the product of (i) the excess, if any, of (A) the Pointer Merger Consideration (allocated between the Cash Consideration and the Stock Consideration in the same proportion as for holders of Pointer ordinary shares), over (B) the exercise price per Pointer ordinary share subject to such option, multiplied by (ii) the total number of Pointer ordinary shares underlying such option. If the exercise price of a vested option was equal to or greater than the consideration payable in respect of a vested option, such option was cancelled without payment. At the Pointer Merger Effective Time, each award of restricted stock units of Pointer (a “Pointer RSU”) that was outstanding and vested immediately prior to such time was cancelled in exchange for the right to receive the Pointer Merger Consideration (allocated between the Cash Consideration and the Stock Consideration in the same proportion as for holders of Pointer ordinary shares). Each Pointer RSU that was outstanding and unvested immediately prior to such time was cancelled and substituted with restricted stock units under the 2018 Plan representing the right to receive, on the same material terms and conditions as were applicable under such Pointer RSU immediately prior to the Pointer Merger Effective Time, that number of shares of PowerFleet common stock equal to the product of (i) the number of Pointer ordinary shares underlying such Pointer RSU immediately prior to the Pointer Merger Effective Time multiplied by (ii) 2.544, with any fractional shares rounded down to the nearest lower whole number of shares of PowerFleet common stock. Total consideration for the Transactions of $130,200 included (i) $71,874 in cash paid at closing, (ii) 10,756 shares of PowerFleet common stock issued at closing with a fair value of $58,080 and (iii) $246 for share-based awards assumed. The Cash Consideration was financed using (i) net proceeds of the issuance and sale by PowerFleet of 50 shares of Series A Preferred Stock to the Investors for an aggregate purchase price of $50,000 pursuant to the terms of the Investment Agreement, and (ii) term loan borrowings by PowerFleet Israel on the Closing Date of $30,000 under the Credit Agreement. Pointer is a provider of telematics and mobile IoT solutions to the automotive, insurance and logistics (cargo, assets and containers) industries. Pointer’s cloud-based software-as-a-service (SaaS) platform extracts and captures data from an organization’s mobility points, including drivers, routes, points-of-interest, logistics network, vehicles, trailers, containers and cargo. The Transactions are expected to provide the Company with operational synergies and access to a broader base of customers. The purchase method of accounting in accordance with ASC805, Business Combinations, was applied for the Transactions. This requires the total cost of an acquisition to be allocated to the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their respective fair values at the date of acquisition with the excess cost accounted for as goodwill. The preliminary allocation of the purchase price was based upon a preliminary valuation and the estimates and assumptions are subject to change during the one-year measurement period and primarily related to income taxes. Goodwill arising from the acquisition is attributable to expected product and sales synergies from combining the operations of the acquired business with those of the Company. I.D. Systems has been determined to be the accounting acquirer in the Transactions. The following table summarizes the preliminary purchase price allocation based on estimated fair values of the net assets acquired at the acquisition date:
Accounts receivable |  | $ | 19,701 |
Inventory |  |  | 8,666 |
Other assets |  |  | 26,403 |
Customer relationships |  |  | 15,610 |
Trademark and tradename |  |  | 6,096 |
Technology |  |  | 10,911 |
Goodwill (a) |  |  | 78,198 |
Less: Current liabilities assumed |  |  | (21,055 | )
Less: Non current liabilities assumed |  |  | (14,330 | )
Net assets acquired |  | $ | 130,200 |
| (a) | The goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes.
The results of operations of Pointer have been included in the consolidated statement of operations as of the effective date of the Transactions. The following revenue and operating income of Pointer are included in the Company’s consolidated results of operations:

CarrierWeb Acquisitions On January 30, 2019, the Company completed the acquisition (the “CarrierWeb US Acquisition”) of substantially all of the assets of CarrierWeb, L.L.C. (“CarrierWeb”), an Atlanta-based provider of real-time in-cab mobile communications technology, electronic logging devices, two-way refrigerated command and control, and trailer tracking. Aggregate consideration for the CarrierWeb US Acquisition was $3,500, consisting of (i) a closing cash payment of $2,800 which consisted of cash of $2,150 and a credit bid by the Company in the amount of the aggregate principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest outstanding under a $650 debtor-in-possession loan made by the Company to CarrierWeb on January 11, 2019, and (ii) a $700 payment in April 2019, when CarrierWeb Services Ltd. (“CarrierWeb Ireland”) was restored to the Register of Companies in Ireland. The CarrierWeb US Acquisition was subject to the entry of a sale order by the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Georgia approving such acquisition. The sale order was entered on January 28, 2019. In connection with the restoration of CarrierWeb Ireland to the Register of Companies in Ireland, the Company also made certain loans to CarrierWeb Ireland in the aggregate principal amount of $300. On July 30, 2019, the Company completed the acquisition (the “CarrierWeb Ireland Acquisition” and together with the CarrierWeb US Acquisition, the “CarrierWeb Acquisitions”) of substantially all of the assets of CarrierWeb Ireland, an affiliate of CarrierWeb, from e*freightrac Holding B.V., the owner of the outstanding equity of CarrierWeb Ireland. Consideration for the CarrierWeb Ireland Acquisition included (i) $550 in cash paid at closing, and (ii) 127 shares of the Company’s common stock, less (1) 56 shares for the satisfaction of aggregate principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest outstanding under $300 loans, less (2) 44 shares held back with an estimated fair value of $250, which were released in November 2019. The assets the Company acquired in the CarrierWeb Acquisitions have been integrated into the Company’s products. In connection with the CarrierWeb Acquisitions, the Company offered employment to all of the former employees of CarrierWeb and CarrierWeb Ireland. The CarrierWeb Acquisitions allow the Company to offer a full complement of highly-integrated logistics technology solutions to its current customers and prospects and immediately add customers and subscriber units. For the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company incurred acquisition-related expenses of approximately $229, which are included in acquisition-related fees. The purchase method of accounting in accordance with ASC805, Business Combinations, was applied for the CarrierWeb Acquisitions. This requires the total cost of an acquisition to be allocated to the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their respective fair values at the date of acquisition with the excess cost accounted for as goodwill. Goodwill arising from the acquisition is attributable to expected product and sales synergies from combining the operations of the acquired business with those of the Company. The following table summarizes the final purchase price allocation of CarrierWeb and CarrierWeb Ireland based on the fair values of the net assets acquired at the acquisition date:
Accounts receivable |  | $ | 192 |
Inventory |  |  | 200 |
Other assets |  |  | 26 |
Customer relationships |  |  | 531 |
Trademark and tradename |  |  | 90 |
Patents |  |  | 628 |
Goodwill (a) |  |  | 3,108 |
Net assets acquired |  | $ | 4,775 |
| (a) | The goodwill is fully deductible for tax purposes.
The results of operations from each of the CarrierWeb Acquisitions have been included in the consolidated statement of operations as of the effective date of each such acquisition. For the year ended December 31, 2019, the CarrierWeb Acquisitions contributed an aggregate of approximately $3,809 to the Company’s revenues. Operating income contributed by the CarrierWeb Acquisitions was not separately identifiable due to Company’s integration activities and is impracticable to provide. Keytroller Acquisition On July 31, 2017, I.D. Systems, together with its wholly-owned subsidiary Keytroller, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Keytroller”), acquired substantially all of the assets of Keytroller, LLC, a Florida limited liability company (the “Keytroller Acquisition”), pursuant to an asset purchase agreement (as amended, the “Keytroller Purchase Agreement”) by and among I.D. Systems, Keytroller, Keytroller, LLC, a Florida limited liability company (n/k/a Sparkey, LLC) (“Sparkey”) and the principals of Sparkey party thereto. Consideration for the Keytroller Acquisition included (i) $7,098 in cash paid at closing, (ii) 296 shares of I.D. Systems’ common stock issued at closing with a fair value of $2,000 and (iii) up to $3,000 of shares of I.D. Systems’ common stock as potential earn-out payments to be made on the first and second anniversaries of the closing date of the Keytroller Acquisition, computed in accordance with the terms of the Keytroller Purchase Agreement. The potential earn-out payments were estimated at a fair value of $2,683. The contingent consideration was discounted at an interest rate of 14.6%, which represents the Company’s weighted-average discount rate. During the fourth quarter of 2017, I.D. Systems paid a post-closing working capital adjustment of $275. On September 14, 2018, I.D. Systems issued 296 shares of its common stock for the earn-out payment for the twelve-month period ending on the first anniversary of the closing date of the Keytroller Acquisition. On August 17, 2019, I.D. Systems issued 148 shares of its common stock for the final earn-out payment for the twelve-month period ending on the second anniversary of the closing date of the Keytroller Acquisition. The Company incurred acquisition-related expenses of approximately $301 which are included in selling, general and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2017. The purchase method of accounting in accordance with ASC805, Business Combinations, was applied for the CarrierWeb Acquisitions. This requires the total cost of an acquisition to be allocated to the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their respective fair values at the date of acquisition with the excess cost accounted for as goodwill. Goodwill arising from the acquisition is attributable to expected product and sales synergies from combining the operations of the acquired business with those of the Company. Contingent consideration related to acquisitions are recorded at fair value (level 3) with changes in fair value recorded in other (expense) income, net. The following table summarizes the final purchase price allocation based on the fair values of the net assets acquired at the acquisition date:
Accounts receivable |  | $ | 835 |
Inventory |  |  | 1,066 |
Other assets |  |  | 42 |
Intangibles |  |  | 5,086 |
Goodwill |  |  | 5,481 |
Less: Current liabilities assumed |  |  | (454 | )
Net assets acquired |  | $ | 12,056 |
The goodwill is fully deductible for tax purposes, except the contingent consideration which is deductible only when paid.
